Chapter 5: Karl

We're running for our lives. No one, it seems, has noticed our absence. Soon we are at the sonar fence. My lungs are bursting from all the running, and my bag hangs heavy on my shoulder. I turn off the fence, and we run through. The minute we hit the jungle, Alex and I slow down. SHe's also breathing heavily. But she looks up and smiles at me. "We made it." I say. She walks over and kisses me lightly. "Yes Karl, we made it. We're free." We walk slowly now, holding hands. "What would we do if.." She asks then stops. "If we found 815 survivors?" I finish. She nods. "Yes, exactly. I don't know where they are, but we might find them." I tell her:"Don't worry. Ford and Austen-" "Sawyer and Kate." "James and Kate will recognize us. They saved me after all. You helped them escape. I'm sure they'll vouch for us." Alex leans over to get some water from her bag, and that's when we hear it. Voices. An they're heading straight for Alex and I. Then, they find us.
